Portainer at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon NA

On October 11 - 15 this year, KubeCon + CloudNativeCon NA was held. It was a very interesting event. It was a hybrid event with so many interesting keynotes, workshops, demos, office hours, etc...

I can say about so many things that happened in the event but there was company @portainerio that had very interesting topics and big announcement for the community and users.

Some of these interesting sessions were as follows:

  2. How to Automate App Development using Portainer and Git
  3. Portainer and Canonical - Easy MicroK8s and Charmed
  4. RBAC Made Easy with Portainer
  5. Migrating from Docker to Kubernetes

The sessions were very interesting and informative and to cap it all, there was a big announcement which with the release on the new Portainer CE 2.9.1.
